DECEMBER 2009 NEWS LETTER
GENERAL CLUB MEETING
FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
**** The number on the web-site as a contact number is incorrect. This number is posted on the old application on our web-site. I am in the process of getting the new application posted on the web-site. In the meantime please do not call that number! The gentleman who now has that number is getting very upset with Tri-State Gun Club. I no longer have that number. My number is listed above. But if you do not see it, it is 334-300-2374. Or you can e-mail me at fiestysharon@aol.com. I do not always check my e-mail everyday. Sometimes, like the rest of you, I just do not have the time.
Also, the mail is running really slow due to Christmas. I check the post office box once a week and sometimes twice a week. I am sorry to those who get upset with me for not immediately responding to their mail or e-mail. I process the mail when I get it, but if it does not reach the mail box I cannot process it. Sharon, Tri-State Gun Club Secretary/Treasurer.
The gate combination has been changed. If you have renewed your membership and do not have the combination, please contact me via e-mail, fiestysharon@aol.com, or call me at, 334-300-2374. I will provide you the new gate combination.
We had only 29 people present at this months meeting, including 8 new members. We have 207 members that have signed up this year and 76 Life Members.

USPSA/IPSA: November USPSA Multi-Gun Match
|
It was a tough match, but the weather was great. We had 14 shooters who certainly got a workout and expended a lot of ammo. I appreciate the great job of Norm and Lindy for helping with the setup on Friday, and all the work from everyone on Saturday with the cleanup. I also want to thank AJ and Michael for running the squads and of course everyone else for their support in taping and scoring. We also had several new shooters to 3 Gun, Lindy, Kent and Ron. They did very well as you can see, and I look forward to them becoming regulars.

Although the weather was a little cool and misty, we still had a great time shooting today. Fifteen shooters came out to brave the elements and share in the fun. John and Grady, as always, came up with some interesting stages, including one that alternated strong hand to weak hand on every target. I guess we all need to work on that some more. Thanks to everyone who helped John and Grady set up this morning and everybody who stayed to help tear down. Thanks especially to Norman, the "Firestarter".
